Before you buy.

What exactly do I receive?

One 29-page PDF with a clickable and printable checklist, selectable copy-and-paste prompts, official resource links and 100 app ideas. This edition does not include videos, coaching or a finished app.

What equipment and subscriptions do I need?

A compatible Mac for Xcode and a suitable Apple device for testing. Dominic recommends the $200/month ChatGPT Pro option for sustained building, but lower-cost Codex plans exist. Apple Developer membership is generally US$99/year. Domain, hosting, filing and API costs are separate.

Does this teach Android or Windows development?

This edition focuses on native Apple apps and the App Store, with a Mac desktop branch and optional website/shop workflows.

Will AI do everything automatically?

AI can help plan, build, test and operate supported browser tools. You still review the result and complete required identity checks, permissions, agreements and payment steps. A prompt cannot enable tools your account does not have.

How does delivery work?

A confirmed payment unlocks the download on the receipt page and emails the PDF attachment plus a private download link to your checkout email. The link works for 30 days; save the PDF for continued access. Keep your receipt. Software interfaces and policies can change.

What about refunds, support and usage rights?

Contact dominicditanna1@gmail.com for support. Refunds are available for duplicate purchases or a file we cannot successfully deliver; other requests are reviewed individually. Your license covers your own learning and projects, without redistribution or resale of the PDF. Purchase terms · Privacy.
